About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world and make photograph strange, ugly and beautiful things on the way.

ABOUT ME

I live in my hometown of Melbourne, where I am trying to survive as a freelance photographer. I have travelled a lot, mostly in South America, but also a bit in North and West Africa. Soon I am heading to Scandinavia for a short trip with my girlfriend Bec.
I will soon be 31, I'm a lover of mountains, beaches, reggae, coffee, chocolate, wine, gardening, sport and a million other things.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace and love man!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My girlfriend and I had some great experiences couchsurfing in Argentina and Uruguay, and hope to do some more on our next trip. One day, when I have the space, I would like to do some hosting too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Four or five experiences surfing, no experience hosting so far. In the little town of La Falda we stayed with Pablo, a paragliding instructor, and I got to go flying! (¡Hola Pablo, y gracias otra vez!) The next day I discovered I had pneumonia. That brought me down to earth...
